Exhaust Silencer question

On the stock exhaust setup, you have the Cat, then a Silencer, then a Back box. Do you need that center silencer for an MOT? I may see if can come out and some normal piping welded in place? Any advice on that front?

I have had the same issue - OK it passes the MOT but with 1 straight through silencer it becomes embarracing to put your foot down at all and also too loud to bear inside the car. It can also be quite a harsh sound too.

I'd recommend puting a straight through mid section silencer in which has almost identical flow as a straight through pipe, but will take the raspy edge off the exhaust note.

All depends on how well you get on with your neighbours :oops: :imout:
